Planetarium programs

 

Distant Suns 4 (DS4) includes a very detailed astronomy manual.  There are also tutorials in the main program. Two versions of DS4 can be downloaded.

Only use the DS4 seti version if you want to install seti@home software from the internet to help search for extraterrestrial intelligence. http://www.distantsuns.com/

 

Sky map Pro is what it says on the tin - a professional program that can even control a telescope! It should work with the school goto scopes.  As about borrowing a computer extension lead if you want to have a go. http://www.skymap.com/ 

 

Home planet is an unusual planetarium program taking the earth as a base.

There are also some cool screen savers on the site.  Get to it via the Astronomy and Space link on http://www.fourmilab.ch/
